At that moment, Tommy walked in and knocked on the door twice to break the discussion. "Ahem! Why are you still all here when the meeting's over? How about I pass on all the questions you've raised to Mister Jeremy later?"
Everything stopped talking when they saw Tommy walk in. They exchanged glances before collecting their things and walking out of the meeting room.
…
Corinne was helping Lucas to drink water from a bottle when Jeremy reached the hospital. He frowned when he saw what they were doing from a distance. 'That little rascal has never fed me water before!'
He walked up to Corinne from behind and glared at Lucas. "I heard it's your foot that got broken, so why can't you use your own hand to drink water?"
Corinne stood up and turned when she heard his voice. "Mister, you're here!"
Jeremy glanced at her and took the bottle of mineral water from her hand. He then walked forward and looked down condescendingly at Lucas. "Can you drink the water yourself? Or do you need me to feed you?" he asked unkindly.
There was no warmth in Lucas' eyes either when he looked at Jeremy. In fact, he was frowning. He snatched the bottle from Jeremy and said, "No, thanks. I can do it just fine."
Corinne frowned. "Mister, the pain from his foot is causing him to feel weak in the hands too. That's why I helped him with the water just now."
Jeremy scoffed and gave her a stern side glance. "How thoughtful of you," he said sarcastically. "If only you're as thoughtful to me as you're to him."
Corinne was speechless.
Lucas did not like how Jeremy was talking to Corinne. He frowned unhappily and said, "Can you speak a little more kindly to her?"
Jeremy turned back to him. "This is between me and my wife. An outsider like you has no right to meddle in our business."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
